Throughway to Happiness
Every one of us is searching after happiness, but we do not know what real happiness is. We see so much advertised about happiness, but practically speaking we see so few happy people. This is because so few people know that the platform of real happiness is beyond temporary things. It is this real happiness that is described in Bhagavad-gita by Lord Krsna to Arjuna. (Article by Srila Prabhupada)

Ideal Householder Life--Better than Many Sannyasis
I am so pleased upon you that you are showing the example of an ideal householder. Srila Bhaktivinode Thakura was also a householder, but he lived in so perfect Krishna Consciousness that he is better than many Sannyasis like us. (Letter from Srila Prabhupada)

Reading Srila Prabhupada's Books
I am requesting all of my students to read my books very seriously every day without fail. In this way, if your mind becomes absorbed at least one or two hours daily... (Letter from Srila Prabhupada)

Perfect Communism
Your great founder of your nation, Mr. Nikolai Lenin, was very much intelligent, and he could understand that people become united only under the guiding principles of a commonly accepted philosophy or standard of truth. But if we examine the course of history, we must conclude, with Mr. Karl Marx, that this so-called standard of truth constantly changes. (Letter from Srila Prabhupada)

Srila Prabhupada on Gurukul
The children should be trained in early rising, attending mangal arati, some elementary education: arithmetic, alphabet, some of our books, like that. They should go to bed by 8 p.m. and rise by 4 a.m. for mangal arati, getting 8 hours sleep. If they take 8 hours sleep, they will not fall asleep during arati.

Rascals are concerned with the grammar.The actual workers are concerned with the thoughts.
The thoughts and the effects of such revolutionary literature are required. Not the grammatical. The so-called rascals, they are concerned with the grammatical. But those who are actually worker, they are concerned with the thoughts... (Article by Srila Prabhupada)

If you ever get money--Print Books!
Lord Caitanya Mahaprabhu desired this chanting of Hare Krishna and dancing in ecstasy be spread all over the world. He predicted one day the whole world will dance in ecstasy to this chanting of Hare Krishna. Until His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada left India for the United States in 1965 no one in India could imagine how the prediction of Lord Caitanya could come true. (Article by Madhudvisa dasa)

The Universe and Time
You have tried to calculate Lord Brahma's age by using some figure the scientists think is correct for the age of the earth. But their figures and their thinking is not very useful. The problem is they work with information they perceive through their senses and their senses are imperfect. The whole process of science, which is observation and experiment, is flawed because all our observations are perceived through our imperfect (Article by Madhudvisa dasa)

Subduing Kaliya
When He understood that the water of the Yamuna was being polluted by the black serpent Kaliya, Lord Krsna took action against him and made him leave the Yamuna and go elsewhere, and thus the water became purified. (Article by Srila Prabhupada)

ISKCON--Copyrighting and Trademarking HARE KRISHNA!!!
The Sankirtana Movement is not my invention. So how can it be copyrighted? (Letter from Srila Prabhupada)

So she said to him, You want to marry me, you are attracted by my beauty, so I will distill my beauty in the next ten days, I will distill my beauty into Related Articles (Article by Madhudvisa dasa)

Finding out About Our Past Lives?
How does one find out what one was in their past life? I have been very curious about this. I sometimes have powerful feelings towards Napoleon. I sometimes wonder if it's possible that I could have been him in another life. I also have visions of being a monk in greece, living in a monestary worshipping Jesus day and night.

Krishna Consciousness--Hindu Cult or Divine Culture?
Sometimes Indians both inside and outside of India think that we are preaching the Hindu religion, but actually we are not. People should not think that we are preaching a sectarian religion. No. We are simply preaching how to love God. We are giving a spiritual culture that can solve all the problems of life, and therefore it is being accepted all over the world.

A Society Based On Literature Distribution
I was recently invited to visit the Australian headquarters of the Jehovah's Witnesses. It's a large complex in Sydney with about 270 people living on the site. The center of the complex is a huge printing press printing their magazines: Watchtower and Awake!, twice a month in more than 25 languages. The magazines are available in Australia in 82 languages and world-wide they print in over 160 languages! They distribute well (Article by Madhudvisa dasa)

A Spiritual Study of Greed [1944 BTG Article]
The Black-marketeers who have been recently raided in large scale by the police in Bihar, are almost in all cases rich merchants, millionaires, landlords etc. It would not have been possible for them to hoard such huge quantity of clothes and foodgrains if they would not have possessed extra wealth to do the mischief. These people were not needy men but they amassed money and hoarded commodities out of a passion (Article by Srila Prabhupada)

Unless One is a Pure Devotee He Should Not Become A Preacher
Unless one is situated as pure Vaisnava in his dealing, in his behavior, inside and outside, he should not become a preacher because it will not be effective, neither one should hear from such person. Those who are preaching, they must be very sincere. They should read the literatures, just like The Nectar of Instruction. We should follow, strictly follow. Then you'll be able to preach and make disciples all over the world. (MP3 Audio by Srila Prabhupada)

Krishna--He Has all Opulences in Full
Krsna is instructing us how to understand Him. That is our only business. This human form of life is meant for understanding Krsna because we are very thickly related with Krsna, just like father and the son. This relation cannot be broken. Maybe son is out of home, son may have forgotten, but Krsna, the supreme father, He does not forget. (MP3 Audio by Srila Prabhupada)
